Steam Deck Review in Progress

21 Comments

1. Looks like a huge waste of money. It's taking the worst aspect of console gaming and merging it with the worst aspects of a pc

2. This is an absolute game changer!

3. Switch… with no heart.

4. nice review

5. Dont worry valve they are jealous

6. Halo Master Chief collection being not approved/compatible is a travesty

7. Anyone that thought you'd be playing AAA titles for 8 hours or anything close to it has wildly fantastic expectations. My MSI gaming laptop lasts about 2 hours in heavy game play and that's not unusual for any laptop. Why are there still people that think the Steam Deck will magically do something like 8?

   Valve gave a very rough estimate for battery life because they kind of had to. People won't buy a device without some indication of what battery could be. But it's going to vary DRASTICALLY based on what you specifically are doing and how. Background software, games, game settings, OS settings, power profiles, etc. It will even vary from update to update on specific games.

   That's part of the tradeoff of being a PC. The only way to get a fairly accurate guess is to limit everyone to doing the same thing the same way with software designed for that hardware specifically… like Nintendo.

8. Sooo what, does the 64 gig model have 12 gigs of usable storage?

9. This dude looks like all the members of Mastodon rolled into one!

10. That battery life has me on the edge of cancelling my order. That is AWFUL.

11. 07:14 look 60 fps
    
    🤮

12. What a joke. The Steam deck screen resolution is garbage. We are in 2022.

13. Just a note on the review: Please show the things you are talking about! For example: Mentioning the fan noise should immediately follow footage and AUDIO of how loud it can get in a quite room. Same thing as when you mention Stellaris text being too small, can we see footage of that?

14. Why did they make this video private a little while ago?

15. Don't downgrade to your OS to Windows. It's bloated, insecure, and spies on you. Windows will not run nearly as well on the Steam Deck as Steam OS will.

16. Really loved your review.

17. Damn. Game Gear really roided up.

18. Buy a GPD WIN instead.

19. Reupload

20. Valve have already got a slim version ready for launch in the next few years and a faster version

21. Valve should make a 8” inch screen Steam Deck. A Steam Deck XL
